Fermionic anticommutators for open superstrings in the presence of antisymmetric tensor field
نویسندگان
چکیده
We build up the anticommutator algebra for the fermionic coordinates of open superstrings attached to branes with antisymmetric tensor fields. We use both Dirac quantization and the symplectic Faddeev Jackiw approach. In the symplectic case we find a way of generating the boundary conditions as zero modes of the symplectic matrix by taking a discretized form of the action and adding terms that vanish in the continuous limit. This way boundary conditions can be handled as constraints.

Normal ordering and boundary conditions for fermionic string coordinates
We build up normal ordered products for fermionic open string coordinates consistent with boundary conditions. The results are obtained considering the presence of antisymmetric tensor fields. We find a discontinuity of the normal ordered products at string endpoints even in the absence of the background. We discuss how the energy momentum tensor also changes at the world-sheet boundary in such...
متن کاملOn the Determination of the Dilaton–Antisymmetric Tensor Couplings in Supergravity Theories
A new approach is provided to determine the dilaton–antisymmetric tensor coupling in a supergravity theory by considering the static supersymmetric field configuration around a super extended object, which is consistently formulated in a curved superspace. By this, the corresponding SUSY transformation rules can also be determined for vanishing fermionic fields as well as bosonic fields other t...
متن کاملA Note on Toroidal Compactifications of the Type I Superstring and Other Superstring Vacuum Configurations with 16 Supercharges
We show that various disconnected components of the moduli space of superstring vacua with 16 supercharges admit a rationale in terms of BPS un-orientifolds, i.e. type I toroidal compactifications with constant non-vanishing but quantized vacuum expectation values of the NS×NS antisymmetric tensor. These include various heterotic vacua with reduced rank, known as CHL strings, and their dual typ...
متن کاملBv Gauge Theories
Using the Non-Abelian Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism introduced recently, we present a generalization of the Yang-Mills gauge transformations , to include antisymmetric tensor fields as gauge bosons. The Freedman-Townsend transformation for the two-form gauge field is automatically recovered. New characteristic classes involving this two-form field and the Yang-Mills one-form field are derived. W...
متن کاملAntisymmetric Tensor Fields in the Locally Localized Gravity Models
We study the localization property of antisymmetric tensor fields in the locally localized gravity models. It is shown that all the antisymmetric tensor fields, including the vector field, in a bulk space-time are trapped on an AdS brane by a gravitational interaction where the presence of the brane cosmological constant plays an important role as in the cases of the other bulk fields. The norm...
